Where We’re Free

Your hands, strong and steady,
always building, always mending.

I see the way you carry the world
A beautiful burden, a quiet strength.

Come closer now;
let me take you where it's soft and safe.

You've borne the weight of storms,
stood strong against the winds,

But here, in my arms,
you don't have to be the mountain.

Let the river wash away
what's weighing on your soul

and give the earth beneath us
what’s out of our control.

Get lost in the stars
while I get lost in your eyes.

You've been my shelter, my strength,
my guard against the night.

Let me celebrate you,
bring you new life

Plant wildflowers where you've stood
and where you still fight.

Lay down your courage
in the warmth of this love

For here, in my arms,
you can be free,

and we can be us.
